Phil, I was at that job fair also -- and it seemed that most were government
contractors -- and EXISTING security clearances were the hot marketable
item! The quality/IT knowledge of the first screen interviewers is probably
minimal - but they seemed to be looking for very specific types -- and as I
said -- without the EXISTING security clearance -- you would never make it
past them. Oh well . . .

Not that I'm aware of... the CCNA expires in it's normal time-frame,
regardless if you are a CCNP or a CCIE.
